fast boat can make it a thousand miles, a slower boat ought to do better.


Whatever happened to the stealth boats? Several years back, I remember
reading drug smugglers where using so-called stealth boats. I believe
they were low and slow, but I never did see a picture of one.

These seem to be stealth except for the wake. Looks like it is over a
